Snow falling on my window.


While snow was falling the world seemed soundless. On the way home I took some photos.  The road was already cleaned up but trees were beautiful covered with fresh snow. 




At home, sipping a cup of green tea I finished my painting "Justice the Queen of Swords" which I'd worked few days. I really satisfied the outcome of this painting. I'd enjoy it for a while. 

This original painting is my version of the Viennese artist Klimt whose art could traces the essence of art to an enigma. The pictorial images of the artist are, in fact, full of images of hermeticism: his works seem to be depictions of a mystery and even more so an expression of emotions and drives. 


Justice is one of the four Virtues-the others being Temperance, Fortitude, and Prudence-which occur frequently in Medieval art. She looks confident, intelligent and complex. She is skillful at balancing opposing factions one against the other. She wears an elaborate outfit bearing in her both hands a metal sword that is an indication of her power.
